I have used your config.plist, but still problem only 7 mb ram on graphic card. Maybe I am doing something wrong. Can I try to erase all my Efi files and start like new installation? but I do not know how to do it or maybe I have to disable SIP or I don't know what. For using your config file I have used "Clover configurator" App. Mount EFI with this app, open EFI and inside Clover folder I have replace my config file with yours. Is it right? Thanks a lot

Are you sure that your GPU is a ATI Radeon 5450? Download MaciASL go to preferences, iASL change ACPI to 5.0 then go to New from ACPI, DSDT and save it as a (dsl) not (asl) attach below. you can download MaciASL from https://sourceforge.net/projects/maciasl/
 
I recently upgraded from 10.8 to 10.11.3 El Capitan. My ATI 5450 was working fine (both DVI and HDMI at once) on 10.8. Now wont work in 10.11.3. See attached picture of my screen. I injected the ATI Fake ID you posted in Clover Configurator, but still getting this weird glitchy-ness. I also attached my config.plist as well. What am i missing? Any help is greatly appreciated!

A lot of people have had that with the Apple Cinema Display. Ive got the same problem with mine even with my 6870 i have the same problem. I don't think theres a solution to fix it.
 
Ahhh. Good to know it's not just me having this issue. Really weird that I had both apple monitors working fine on 10.8, but won't anymore on 10.11.3. Oh well, looks like i'll be visiting eBay
 
hey i don't get it running

I have a Saphhire Silent with 512MB. In Graphics it says 0x68f9 as ID. I did this in clover ...
I come into OS X but its all glitchy and slow. also only 3MB are shown ... what is the Mistake? I also took a config from you last post.

no luck

From looking at your profile you have the 5770? Please update your profile with correct hardware specs. Attach original Config.plist. Download DCPIManager attach screenshot of PCI List. FYI don't use other people's Config.plist or DSDT from attachments chances are you don't have same hardware I recommend not using other people's patches only patch your own.
 
In my dual ATI card config I'm not able to use the correct framebuffer for my HIS silent 512mb 5450 (68E1) ... any ideas?

I've tried using "Eulemur", "Hoolock", "Baboon", "Vervet" with the most successful one being from Vervet, unless I set no framebuffer and use the "RadeonFramebuffer" default that comes up. The 5450 card I have contains VGA/HDMI/DVI connectors.

Eulemur - 2 displays detected - no image on either display
Hoolock - 1 display detected - no image on display
Baboon - 1 displays detected - no image on display
Vervet - 2 displays detected - 1 display with image
No framebuffer set 2 detected both with correct display, but this just shows as generic "ATI Radeon HD 5000" when doing this.

As I have 2 cards of different styles I can't use Clover injection and have to rely on DSDT.

Here is my current setup in DSDT:
PEG0/GFX0 is my working HD 5770, HDMI audio works, 3 usable displays via DP/HDMI/DVI.
PEG1/GFX1 is the semi-working HD 5450.
In the state of the DSDT right now it seems that the name I'm injecting is ignored but the Device ID correction is being picked up, along with the HDMI audio portion.

Ideally I'd like to use a real framebuffer for both cards and at a minimum I'd like to fix the displayed card info of "ATI Radeon HD 5000" to the information I specified in the DSDT below.
